Case Study

Creating a Flexible
Solution for an
Automotive Supplier

We helped them reduce turnover by 60-70%

An Upstate Tier 1 automotive supplier was managing a large staff of temp workers in their facility—workers split between two of their vendors. If they were going to stabilize their business and grow, they would need a solution that could help them gain a more highly skilled workforce, and keep it.

We knew that what the company needed was a customized solution. So we implemented our FullFlex program to create a tiered approach for them, delivering full-time regular, fully-benefited employees as well as temporary associates who could convert to full-time employees over time.

Our 2-year staffing strategy achieved incredible results for the manufacturer. Our stronger benefits package attracted stronger workers and within months, we had reduced turnover by 60-70% per month. We also improved their long-term retention of contract employees by 300% and raised the overall quality of their workforce.

Testimonial

Every year we’re asked as a business to reinvent ourselves to remain competitive in this global market. One initiative we pursued was adopting the FullFlex employment model with HTI. FullFlex allowed us to mitigate increases in fully-loaded wage rates, and to shed fixed-cost burdens of insurance, 401k match, healthcare, and workers compensation, while still retaining employees committed to out company’s vision as a product leader. FullFlex is a strategic initiative that will continue to evolve as we look to maintain a globally-competitive wage structure.
